The first Polish translation of the Kural text was made in prose in 1958 by Wandy Dynowskiej Umadevi, published by the Indo-Polish Library (Biblioteka Polsko-Indyjska). It was only a partial translation. During the same year, a parallel edition by the same translator appeared in Poland.[1] A verse translation was made by Bohdan Gębarski, published in 1977 under the title Tirukkural. Święta księga południowych Indii. It is a complete translation. It was published again in 1998.[2][3]
